I didn't even realize that this was cut together before I read the comment section. Now my feelings are an odd mixture between feeling stupid and admiration for your work. That's what I call talent!
It doesn't happen often, but when the YT algorithm delivers a gem like this, you have to applaud it. This is just pure genius and the editing is just too delicious.
I met tomas haake outside the hawthorn theater in portland oregon before a show. He asked me “is that chocolate milk?” Yes. “That’s badass.” My life is complete.
i went to Malaysia in 2005 for a visit, their Borneo rain forest music festival to be precise, ended up hanging out with the locals of the underground music scene. they taught me 2 things 1. how to smoke weed and 2. meshuggah. took the 2nd back with me to Japan. the best discovery ever made in my travels abroad; Meshuggah. from the most isolated corners of the world when it is least expected.
This video introduced me to Meshuggah, now they are one of my favorite bands and I even got to see them live in March. Thank you for this piece of art!
Well it's the Oscars so if Meshuggah contributed to a film and it was stellar then they could probably be there But yea idk if a metal score has ever been presented at an academy awards That being said, has there ever been a really good score in an grand film that has been heavy metal or mostly metal composed? 🤔🤔
No doubt the Oscars are a circlejerk, but there's generally plenty of talent on display that's better than this. I can appreciate music of most genres, including several genres of metal, but this song is about as close to "raucus, incomprehensible noise" as one gets. And coming from a guitar player, it all sounds rather simplistic.
I'm pretty sure the guy that booked them was heavily admonished 6 ways to Sunday after that. Still, great idea to subject those snobs to a good heavy dose of black metal. The looks were priceless.
Excellent Edit ! For a sec , you had me fooled , but then I was like there is no way the Oscars would allow good music to play on their stage . Cheers 🥃
@@vinceharrin4490 Did you know that people with religion look for literally anything to attack and call satanic because religion is a primitive idea that simply drives humans apart?
Was talking to a guy at work about metal today and when I brought up meshuggah he said oh yeah they're good did you see them play at the Oscars? I just burst out laughing 😂 he didn't believe me that this video is edited 😂
So darn good... the eyebrow raise at 0:47, finger-points at 1:18, lipsyncing at 2:16, and so many of the other head bobs and facial expressions fit perfectly. Great job!
@@leejones5460 so you clicked on this specific video, of a band you don't like, just to say you don't like it. sounds to me like you're either a sad fuck or just trolling.
F*ck man, Tom Hanks is on fire while Billie Eilish is kinda disturbed. I expected the opposite 😂 Meshuggah is massive! Had them live and they killed it 🤟
I was half way through the video until I got it. Tom Hanks having fun with this made me suspicious. Damn, for about 30 seconds, I thought Gal Gadot was even cooler.
the nuance is unbelievably obtained in this video. This is what every “non listener” of metal would be like at a performance like this, some skeptical, some along for the ride, some borderline embarrassed. And yet every time by the end of the song, all are bobbing their heads having the best time of their lives! Incredible! I don’t know if even these actors themselves could have properly embodied these characters as much as this video did for them. Bravo 👏🤌
Omg the editing here was amazing. The idea of Meshuggah performing at a suit and tie event like this while Tom Hanks and the like rock out is so hilarious!
This brought tears to my eyes, amazing editing. But if only they really knew what they were missing. One day the world will recognize the power and talent.
@@siah-naraa this is some of the best example of talent in screamo vocals. Screaming to this capacity is DIFFICULT. Not to mention the choreography of the rest of drumming and bass as a band. This band is very talented in their craft. Takes time to appreciate the talent and beauty of the art.
Saw Messugah open up for Tool in Boulder in 2002! Damn can’t believe it’s been 20 years…I had just graduated HS, an amazing show, they are absolutely brutal live.
I could be wrong, but I think they played the day before or after that Boulder show in Colorado Springs. I was at that show. Both bands played lights out!
@@adamgross8299 It was!! Civic Center in Knoxville. So trippy, I remember thinking Meshuggah was really weird but cool. Not knowing they would become one of my main influences.
The way Keanu's expression was at the clip he used was just perfect as Keanu is in a band.(He may not be good as a musician but he knows his music stuff).
i think the vocals is from a cover or something ( for copyright reasons maybe? ) because that doesn't sound like him to me but i haven't watched meshuggah live videos in a while so maybe he changed his technique. but i doubt it
I’ll never forget this night. Great time. And when Billie eilish did her duet with them at the end. It’s was hard to notice her mumble under all the brutal. Awesome after party too.
@@yourmusictastesuks I am pretty sure Mick Gordon, David Levy and Andrew Hulshult were heavily inspired by Meshuggah while writing Doom Eternal's soundtrack.
For all the newfriends that joined this because they didn't know better and legitimately thought Meshuggah played at the Oscars, this song is called Demiurge.
A masterpiece that will undoubtedly ascend into the anthology of the great works for eons to come. You have forever elevated the art form with this Magnum Opus of the ancient gods.
This is a RUclips hidden gem, even at 508k views (Nov 22). This should be everywhere and every Meshuggah fan in the world should know about it (and love it).

Splicing together the different camera angle footage to see everyone's reactions is a type of editing. C'mon, folks!
@@blksbth1 oh yeah, I forgot about that
The editing here is perfection.
Some of the audience is rocking out,

Don't worry, we're all stupid. Some more stupid than others.
i was like "wow alot of celebrities like meshuggah. who would have thought?"
same lol
the lighting for both was so perfectly matched
Dude! Saaaame! Almost a year later and SAAAAAME
So polite of them to play a soft power ballad for this audience.
They didnt want them to hurt their hands from clapping so hard
Smooth jazz approach was good
completely appropriate for black tie events.
Too funny 😂
Can't wait for the 20 year anniversary tour for "I"
The Oscar’s aren’t mocked enough, more of this pls
💯
Is impossible to mock them enough
r u joking ? if u don't you're really stupid
Ever since #oscarssowhite changed it into only giving out diversity awards, it's been a total joke
Where's will smith? Slapping the bass?
Am I the only person who thinks this would be absolutely amazing if they played meshuggah live at the the oscars?
For all those horrible people? Are you sick?
@@PaulieTheDudepeople should here good music instead of some garbage dare I say Billie eyelash😱

Chocolate milk is metal as fuck.
I had a lot of fun at the Hawthorn theater recently. That's a pretty cool little venue.

That's never going to happen...sadly...that's why we have these awesome edited videos ...
Normies would melt
It would smash through their MK Ultra coding and leave them with premature ego death. It would be carnage.
So that wasn’t real? Props to the editor of the video then. I totally bought it 👍🤯
I've never listened to Meshugga in my life, but I've watched this video 7 or 8 times because it's just that damn good.
i went to Malaysia in 2005 for a visit, their Borneo rain forest music festival to be precise, ended up hanging out with the locals of the underground music scene.
they taught me 2 things 1. how to smoke weed and 2. meshuggah.
took the 2nd back with me to Japan. the best discovery ever made in my travels abroad; Meshuggah. from the most isolated corners of the world when it is least expected.
The song "Rational Gaze" from their album 'Nothing,' is basically Vipassana meditation instructions.

Eyes wide open,
Searching for the unseen,
Knowing something epic is on the way.

This is not my jam but massive respect to the vocalist. That is some strenuous singing and I'm all for it.
He's been doing it for decades. I think he's approaching 60; amazing.
